First you have a mark up ("uptrend") - by the first Higher High (HH) then a Higher Low (HL). Price continues to drive upward until it reaches a zone where it can no longer continue [...]
Liquidity Gap Fill Trade
What is a Liquidity Gap? First - without getting too much into market mechanics ( I will do so in a future blog post ) - you have to understand a basic concept. Markets are really trying to find the balance between buyers and sellers. Period. So if you learn anything here - take this away -> MARKETS WANT BALANCE.

Markets will continue to be in balance unless some sort of news or force [...]
Sentiment Analysis week of 1 SEP 2019
